One by one, they followed the sunUno por uno, siguieron al sol
One by one, until there were noneUno por uno, hasta que no quedó ninguno
Two by two, to their lovers they flewDos por dos, hacia sus amantes volaron
Two by two, into the foggy dewDos por dos, en el rocío brumoso
Three by three, they danced on the seaTres por tres, bailaron en el mar
Four by four, they danced on the shoreCuatro por cuatro, bailaron en la orilla
Five by five, they tried to surviveCinco por cinco, intentaron sobrevivir
Six by six, they were playing with tricksSeis por seis, jugaban con trucos
How many paths did they try and fail?¿Cuántos caminos intentaron y fallaron?
How many of their brothers and sisters lingered in jail?¿Cuántos de sus hermanos y hermanas quedaron en la cárcel?
How much poison did they inhale?¿Cuánto veneno inhalaban?
How many black cats crossed their trail?¿Cuántos gatos negros cruzaron su camino?
Seven by seven, they headed for heavenSiete por siete, se dirigieron al cielo
Eight by eight, they got to the gateOcho por ocho, llegaron a la puerta
Nine by nine, they drank the wineNueve por nueve, bebieron el vino
Ten by ten, they drank againDiez por diez, bebieron de nuevo
How many tomorrow's have are they given away?¿Cuántos mañanas han regalado?
How many compared to yesterday?¿Cuántos en comparación con ayer?
How many more without any reward?¿Cuántos más sin ninguna recompensa?
How many more can they afford?¿Cuántos más pueden permitirse?
Two by two, they stepped into the arkDos por dos, entraron en el arca
Two by two, they step in the darkDos por dos, entran en la oscuridad
Three by three, they're turning the keyTres por tres, giran la llave
Four by four, they turn it some moreCuatro por cuatro, la giran un poco más
One by one, they follow the sunUno por uno, siguen al sol
Two by two, to another rendezvousDos por dos, hacia otro encuentro
